pfSense/Squid 2.5 can now download our additionnal signatures for ClamAV
Since 31th December 2020,
feature #11202 of
pfSense has added the ability of download
additionnal signatures for ClamAV created by SecuriteInfo.com.
But when you configure it using the web interface, it does not work. The signatures do not download, and this error message is displayed in freshclam logs :
ERROR: Update failed.
ERROR: Database update process failed: HTTP GET failed (11)
WARNING: fc_download_url_databases: fc_download_url_database failed: HTTP GET failed (11)
Update failed for custom database URL: https://www.securiteinfo.com/get/signatures/on/securiteinfo.hdb
ERROR: Can't download securiteinfo.hdb from https://www.securiteinfo.com/get/signatures/on/securiteinfo.hdb
ERROR: downloadFile: Unexpected response (403) from https://www.securiteinfo.com/get/signatures/on/securiteinfo.hdb Trying again in 5 secs...
The URL is wrong. It should not have "on", but your personnal ID. That's why you get back a 403 error.
How to solve this 403 error ?
You have to enabling manual configuration , clicking the "Load Advanced" button and then the "Show Advanced Options" and adding the urls directly into the freshclam.conf file in the DatabaseCustomURL section.
After saving that and clicking on the "Update AV" button you can see that those signatures are being downloaded.
